Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of energy storage cabinets and relates to an electrical connection device between a PCS and a distribution box in an energy storage cabinet. Background Art

[0002] Energy storage cabinets are devices specially designed for storing electrical energy. They have a wide range of application scenarios and play an important role in power systems, renewable energy utilization, home backup power supplies, and specific industry applications. Energy storage cabinets are of great significance to improving energy utilization efficiency, promoting the popularization of renewable energy, and enhancing the flexibility and reliability of power systems through their high-efficiency energy storage and release capabilities. The PCS box in the energy storage cabinet refers to the "power conversion system", which is a key component in the electrochemical energy storage system. The PCS box is responsible for realizing the bidirectional conversion of electrical energy, that is, it can control the charging and discharging process of the energy storage battery pack and convert AC and DC in these two directions. Specifically, when the battery pack needs to be charged, the PCS box converts the AC power from the grid or other power sources into DC power for battery storage; and when the battery pack discharges to power the grid or load, it converts the DC power released by the battery back into AC power. The PCS box ensures the efficient flow and control of electrical energy, can directly power AC loads without a grid, and is a bridge connecting the battery system and the grid (or load). It usually includes a bidirectional converter, a control unit, a protection mechanism, and an interface for communicating with a battery management system (BMS) and an energy management system (EMS) to achieve intelligent management and optimize operation strategies. In modern energy storage systems, the technical performance of PCS has an important impact on the efficiency, safety, and economy of the entire system.

[0003] However, due to the large current carrying capacity of the connecting cable between the PCS and the distribution box in the energy storage cabinet, the connecting cable is usually selected with a wire diameter of 50 square or more. The large-diameter cable has the following defects when connecting and routing in a cabinet with a small space: First, the bending radius is large: due to the thick wire diameter, a distance of 50-60mm is required at the bending point of the routing. Secondly, it is difficult to install in a narrow space: affected by the bending radius, installation in a narrow cabinet space is hindered by the yield stress of the cable, which makes installation difficult and inefficient. Thirdly, it wastes materials: when turning, due to the large bending radius, a longer length than the actual distance is required. Finally, it affects the heat dissipation effect of the PCS and the life of the cable: due to the small area behind the PCS and the large bending radius of the cable, the cable will block the air outlet of the PCS after installation, affecting the heat dissipation effect; at the same time, due to the high air outlet temperature of the PCS, the cable insulation is directly blown by hot air for a long time, affecting the safe service life of the cable, and there are safety hazards in long-term use.
